Sensory testing of seafood - fresh versus frozen - and development of frozen seafood recipes

Project number: 2017-179
Project Status:
Completed
Budget expenditure: $67,870.00

Need

The FRDC has developed a range of materials that assist consumer to better understand seafood - seafood user manual, Eyre Peninsula Seafood Guide, flavour wheel, etc. however little material has been developed to address consumer needs on preparing seafood in a way that reduces smell or touching.

In looking at the recipes developed as part of the seafood user manual, many are now dated and do not reflect the current simplified approach to cooking used by Australian consumers.

Some recipe development has been undertaken by the Alaskan Seafood Marketing Institute - and could possibly be used as a base for adaptation to local species.

Objectives

1. Develop recipes that address consumer needs - do not smell or use frozen seafood
2. Provide the research (qualitative sensory evaluations) to underpin consumer confidence in choosing and using frozen seafood

Summary

There is a strong negative perception of frozen fish amongst consumers, with many considering that frozen product is of inferior quality compared to ‘fresh’ (chilled) fish. The resistance to purchase frozen fish continues, despite modern freezing technology and practices resulting in frozen product that remains as premium quality for longer than chilled fish.

Summary

Which is better… fresh or frozen? When it comes to fish and seafood, everyone says that fresh is best … but is this really true? Sensory testing research shows there is no discernible difference between fresh or frozen fish from a culinary perspective.

TSRA: Assessing direct export feasibility, marketing and branding opportunities for Torres Strait Fisheries derived products

Commercial fishing is an economically important activity in the Torres Strait providing financial opportunities for the traditional inhabitants of the region. A key barrier to development of this fishery has been identified as the additional cost of reaching markets and the cost of doing business...

Seafood CRC: benefit-cost analysis of marker assisted selection in Australian aquaculture species

Need

The development and application of marker assisted selection (MAS), genomic breeding values (GEBVs) and selection using gene expression profiling (GEPS) is a rapidly developing area, and significant technological and methodological advances have been made in recent years. There is potential that these techniques could greatly speed the genetic progress in selective breeding programs and provide faster access and more benefit than conventional selective breeding techniques. However, before embarking on research in this area, aquaculture industries need answers to a number of questions. What basic resources are available or needed for each species before research to find markers or to apply MAS, GEBVs or GEPS can be carried out? Which traits would be best targeted for MAS, GEBVs or GEPS? and what is the economic value of these traits? What are the likely cost-benefits for MAS, GEBV or GEPS? When should research be undertaken or what developments might trigger research in this area for each species? What has been the measured impact of the application of these technologies on other industries? This project relates to the research strategies developed by the CRC from projects that have scoped selective breeding for abalone, Yellowtail Kingfish and Barramundi. It also relates to the R&D strategies developed by many of the aquaculture sectors in the CRC (eg. abalone, oyster, Atlantic Salmon, Prawns etc.) which have included in the past, or currently include, projects to develop markers or apply marker assisted selection.

Objectives

1. To provide a concise report that focuses on the relevance and benefit cost analysis of marker assisted selection for the abalone, Barramundi, Prawn, tuna, Yellowtail Kingfish, Mulloway, oyster and Atlantic Salmon aquaculture industries
